    I've never facetanked begone tbh, but I didn't notice any problem on imp cage? Only did a few runs so.

    I mean you can use kaia inside the cage but doesn't reduce the dmg from the pizzas or circles anymore.

    If I'm not mistaken, I think the damage will depend on if the boss is enraged or not. On my lancer I accidentally tanked begone but the boss was enraged at the time and I had my iron will up. Hp went from 140k to 15k hp. I don't think I had kaia because the priest was too far at the time. I can definitely confirm that when boss is unenraged, the dmg is much higher and it's a one shot if caught in the begone. Same thing applies in the cage at imperator.

    Just another nail in the coffin for priest tbh. Maybe next they'll make kaias useless against damage over time mechanics too, and then give a working version of kaias to mystics.

    i actually don't disagree with the change, I hated that people became reliant on kaias to skip mechanics for the longest time now, but it definitely puts the class in an even worse spot than it needs to be in rn

    I think that's a main benefit of kaias, though. If mystic provides dps support through its auras and buffs, then priest -- with its variety of heals and its shield -- should theoretically be able to provide dps support by allowing the party to take hits that would otherwise kill them. Removing kaias makes priest worthless at higher levels of play, beyond babysitting learning runs. And even for those, you could take a mystic since they don't even have to aim their heals/cleanses anymore.

    Are you sure you're using Kaias at the right amount of HP? You need at least 165k or so to even think of facetanking it with Kaias.
